VLB30110A480 - 3PH AC DRIVE 11KW 400V WITH FILTER
MPN: VLB30110A480
Why Choose the Lovato VLB30110A480 VLB3 Series 11 kW Variable Frequency Drive?
The Lovato VLB30110A480 delivers powerful and efficient 11 kW (≈15 HP) constant torque control from a three‑phase 400–480 VAC supply. Featuring an integrated Category C2 EMC suppressor compliant with IEC/EN 61800‑3, it supports up to ~20 m motor cable runs at 4 kHz switching frequency, enabling side-by-side cabinet installation without ventilation gaps. With an output current of approximately ~23 A and built-in brake chopper, this compact IP20 “book‑style” drive offers advanced motor control (V/f, sensorless vector, ECO, PID, servo) and flexible network integration via RS‑485 Modbus‑RTU plus optional modules such as CANopen, EtherCAT, PROFINET, IO‑Link, and Safe Torque Off (STO).
